Chet Baker Is Finding His Way Towards Me


Spilled out

 

Changing the colour of your hair at 02:00 AM.

Black or red  ̶  both choices are equally good.

Or even better  ̶  cutting your hair along with all troubles,

Then removing all traces of old colour with the new one.

 

Mess up the layout of the furniture in the house,

finding new places for the minutest details.

That’s how it begins, that’s how it ends  ̶

the episode wherein the the mind seduces the body.
